  Iran seems to live in la-la land. They leave their scientists and military leaders openly vulnerable.

  They won’t resist a full-on air, ground, and sea operation. Israel will get what it wants and the prince whatever his face also.

    Even if they lose, that doesn’t mean we win. I say we, I mean “The United States.” It will be expensive, we won’t achieve our geopolitical objectives, we’ll alienate our allies, I seriously can’t think of what tos actually in it for the US.

      Dude, Iran has no hope against what’s amassing in the area over the last few weeks. A few pitiful Russian weapons that no one’s trained to use? Then what?

        The Taliban kicked our asses with IEDs and Soviet surplus. They don’t have to win for us to lose.

      That nuclear aircraft carrier and its escort has sailed. Probably to the Red Sea under orders from the real commander.

        I mean we’ll really alienate them. They aren’t happy with us right now, because we’re acting a fool, but we aren’t out in the cold yet.
